Reports from
The Daily Mail
reveal that the luxury 2,500 sq ft, three-bedroom home on London's Dunraven Street was purchased by property development company Aspire upon the news of McQueen's death in 2010.

Previously owned and lived in by PG Wodehouse, the literary brain behind the Jeeves and Wooster novels, and a grandson of Queen Victoria, estate agent Knight Frank expects the property to fetch £7.25 million.

The multi-million pound price tag not only owes to the property's heritage, but the private courtyards leading off two of the bedrooms, and plush en suite bathrooms. Chief executive Gary Brine of Aspire also chose to keep the wine cellar that McQueen had spoken so enthusiastically about before his death.

McQueen, who was known as Lee to friends and family, hanged himself on February 11 2010 after taking a cocktail of cocaine, sleeping pills and tranquillisers, the day before his mother Joyce's funeral. He was posthumously honoured at the 2010 British Fashion Awards with an Outstanding Achievement award.
